1 Kings 4:29-31

29Now 1God gave Solomon wisdom and very great discernment and breadth of 2mind, 3like the sand that is on the seashore.

30Solomon’s wisdom surpassed the wisdom of all 4the 5people of the east and 6all the wisdom of Egypt.

31For 7he was wiser than all other people, more than 8Ethan the Ezrahite, Heman, 9Calcol, and 10Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his 11fame was known in all the surrounding nations.
